After searching for months, a lead actress for Akhil Akkineni’s fourth film has been decided. Pooja Hegde has recently signed Akhil Akkineni’s fourth film as the lead actress. Earlier, she was supposed to film for Prabhas' next film but the movie got postponed, which is why she gave the same dates to Akhil's film.

Earlier, the makers of the film were considering other actresses, even newcomers. But the team felt that a leading actress like Pooja Hegde will be better for the film's success and she can bring craze among the trade circles.

After delivering three flops, Akhil wishes to redeem himself through this film. One of the reasons why his films did not do well is that he could not command good pre-release business and promotions were a bit lacklustre.

The film is a romantic drama movie produced by GA2 Pictures and directed by Bommarillu Bhaskar. The rom-com is expected to go on floors this month.

A source revealed, "Pooja plays a strong and mature role that drives the story from beat to beat, through conflict to resolution. Akhil will be seen in his real self -- in a soft and restrained avatar with a stylish makeover in the film. The audience will fall in love with their sparkling chemistry and characterisation."

Akhil Akkineni has done 3 films in the lead role till date. His debut film was Akhil directed by V. V. Vinayak which released in 2015. After two years, he came up with his second film Hello directed by Vikram Kumar. This year, his third film Mr Majnu was released.

When it comes to ruling the box office and giving blockbuster hits, Pooja Hegde is a force to be reckoned with, especially in Tollywood. In the last few years, she has delivered multiple hits and she has worked with some of the top names in the industry. In other words, she has made a name for herself in the industry.
